Please note that currently we have experienced flood damage and that the game room is no longer available and the entry, entry and hallway have been impacted. I currently do not have the variety of games and other outdoor activities / supplies due to flooding. The home is still available and the units themselves were not impacted. However, if you choose to rent, please understand that there will be some areas that are not finished, construction may be present (but I will communicate that with you), and that the handrail for the first set of steps is missing due to the lack of drywall at this time.


2 bedroom and 2 bath home with Ocean Vistas. Fabulous location within simple walking distance to the beach, Publix, stores, splash pad, the park and eateries. Some of our favorites are the BBQ home, OKI Coffee Shop, OKI Scoop Shop and 49th Street Bar and Grille. We are located one block from a public beach access. We have everything you could need in one spot! You are also within walking distance of the Oak Island summer activities such as bands, movies in the park, the new skate park and splash pad.

Another benefit is complimentary parking! Starting April 1st, the town will be charging $20 per day for beach parking. This home gives you beach access without any additional costs since you are just steps away from the ocean.


If you want the best vistas, rent this section of the home! You can also contact me for a discounted rate for both levels, giving you 5 bedrooms, 5 baths, room to sleep 24 people, 2 completely outfitted kitchens, 2 living areas, and 2 private decks.

We decided to give a nod to one of our favorite college teams, the Appalachian State University Mountaineers, and bring our mountain appreciate a little closer to the ocean. The name of our home is "NEER the SeA", with the "A" in traditional AppState fashion. Both of my parents are from Boone, and both attended AppState. My Mother was a giant AppState fan and a lover of Oak Island, so my son and I decided that the name of the home was the ideal tribute to her and her legacy.
